The MONOLITH grill is design. It combines aesthetics with functionality in an accomplished fashion. An object of art, pleasing to both the eye and the palate.

The MONOLITH grill is an all round talent. It brings Italian gastronomic culture and the Argentinean way of live directly in to your home. 365 days of holidays every year.

The MONOLITH grill is tradition. For over 3000 years ceramic grills have been used to cook, grill and smoke. In the 70s the ceramic grill evolved out of the, for centuries known, Mushikamado and began to blaze its trail of success.

The MONOLITH grill is made of extremely heat-resistant ceramics and high-grade stainless steel. It has two practical side tables made of bamboo. The stand, like most of the metallic parts, is made of high-grade stainless steel. Due to the very good insulation of the heavy ceramics and the ingenious regulation of the air supply you can control the temperature in the MONOLITH, unlike any other type of grill. The consumption of charcoal is around 25 - 50% compared to a customary grill.

The outside temperature of the MONOLITH is much lower than a steel grill - there is minimal danger of burn injuries.

The required temperatures are reached very quickly through the chimney effect.

Low air circulation prevents the meat from drying out.

Very wide temperature range.

Due to the extremely temperature resistant ceramics and the use of high-quality stainless steel the MONOLITH is very low-maintenance and can even be used in winter.

The Monolith Basic is a slimmed down version of the Classic model, with the same 46 cm. grill diameter and like all Monoliths, it delivers versatility for BBQ grilling, baking, searing and smoking as standard. The Basic is also the same high-quality construction but clearly the appearance is different.

They have stripped away the chip feeder system and they have replaced the Stainless steel bands with powder-coated steel bands. The Stainless Steel grill grate can be further enlarged using the optional extension grid and the 2nd grid level grill expand to provide ample space for several side dishes at the same time as your main cook.

Choose also from the extensive range of Monolith Classic accessories, such as the rotisserie, cast iron grid, pizza stone, wok & stand or fire plate and your Monolith Basic becomes a fully-fledged all in one outdoor cooker.

Grilling Methods:

1. DIRECT GRILLING: Grilling is the go-to technique for quick, delicious and cosistent results. Using high-quality charcoal will ensure a steady flame and unmatched flavor in everything you grill, from burguers to corn on the cob. With this method the grill rack is placed on the fire ring over the hot coals. The food must be turned in order to be grilled from both sides.

2. INDIRECT GRILLING: The deflector stone is placed on the fire ring over the hot coals, protecting the food from the direct heat. The grill rack is raised with the distance piece. Indirect heat is probably the most common way of cooking on a Kamado. With this method, the heat is diffused around the plate and evenly heats the food.

3. BAKING: More than a grill, the Kamado Monolith can become a charcoal-fired oven with just one simple configuration. Its ceramic walls retain heat and its circular shape promotes superior air circulation, creating ideal conditions for baking. You can bake anything you’d cook in an indoor oven, from wood-fired pizzas to rustic berry cobblers to fresh, crusty bread.

4. SMOKING: Different options exist for smoking food: smoking with wood, wood chips or wood flour. After heating the grill up, close the air regulator, minimising the intake of air. By adding different kinds of seasoning or spices destined for smoked food, you can change the flavour of your meal as you wish. It is used for traditional barbecue meats that require long, slow cooking at low heat, such as ribs, brisket, whole turkey, and pulled pork.

Barbecue, low temperature cooking, baking, smoking ...

Which ever way you prepare your dishes, the MONOLITH grill will always enable you to achieve perfect results. No matter whether you need very high temperatures to grill the perfect steak or smoke a large amount of meat for hours on low temperatures.

The MONOLITH used as a stone oven is perfectly suitable for baking pizza or bread. The temperature range is between 70 °C and 400 °C. Due to its unique efficiency the grill needs very little energy to generate and maintain the desired temperatures. Using 3 kg of charcoal, the MONOLITH can work in the low temperature range for up to 24 hours. Hence very little oxygen is required; air movement is extremely low in the grill, preventing the meat from drying out. The meat remains moist. If you just want to quickly grill 2 steaks, this is not a problem.

Due to the chimney effect, the charcoal heats up extremely fast. With the high temperatures you can grill the steaks, closing the openings afterwards to regulate the air. The grill and fire area are very well sealed; the charcoal embers die down within a short time and can be used for another time.
